Bad disc/pads

Got a car off ebay a few months ago only for parts

but the bloke was still driving it around with brakes like this.

 

Oh cr*p. How can someone neglect something like that. you'd cringe if you saw him braking behind you

 

still a few mil to be had there! but on a serious note, they look like they have been heavily neglected!

 

Just a bit of surface rust

 

Lack of use that!! I just brought an old bmw with parts that looks the same

 

theres loads of metal left in them!

 

Here's some worn Discs Drove and stopped Ok aswell

 

The stopping power of those disc's would be amazing, but pad wear would be a little bit too high for my liking

 

2500 miles from new

 

Once had a GTX come in with the inner side of the disc worn down to the vents like that, feck knows how they do it

 

Less than 6 months old them aswell. Thing is Wagon drove and stopped as it should no squealing grinding etc. Only found out after it had dumped its Brake fluid on the floor of the yard

 

thats never a good sign

 

That`s the trouble with drilled discs!! I keep well away from them.

 

i had one like that, my golf was passed down from my sister i thought the brakes were squeeking a bit so when i changed the pads and discs i found that there was actually just metal on the pads
